PRODUCTION DATA.
The voltage monitor generates the Power Good MCU signal (PGMCU) as well as the I/Os Power Good IO signal (PGIO) on the device. During power-up or power-down, the PGMCU and PGIO are driven low when the core or I/O supplies are lower than the specified minimum monitoring thresholds. The PGIO and PGMCU being low isolates the core logic as well as the I/O controls during power up or power down of the supplies. This allows the core and I/O supplies to be powered up or down in any order.
When the voltage monitor detects a low voltage on the I/O supply, it will assert a power-on reset. When the voltage monitor detects an out-of-range voltage on the core supply, it asynchronously makes all output pins high impedance, and asserts a power-on reset. The I/O supply must be above the threshold for monitoring the core supply. The voltage monitor is disabled when the device enters a low power mode.
The VMON also incorporates a glitch filter for the nPORRST input. Refer to Section 5.3.3.1 for the timing information on this glitch filter.
